Darren,
As a long time VW builder (40 years) I recommend you remove the paint. All
paint acts as an insulator to some degree and the last thing a VW needs is
more heat. I have always kept my engines bare and those of my customers.

My old 1835vw has peeling paint on it.
Is it really necessary to have the block painted?
Is there any safe way to strip it off or is a wire brush my only option
besides a walnut shell blaster?

I placed my last rather large order for shirts and hats and was told
the supplier was out of stock on one of the sizes, large or extra
large, I think, and won't be available till the week after the
Gathering. The short count was about 20 shirts or so. I will be
short a few shirts for those
Thanks for the positive comments guys. I like to throw some positive karma
around any chance that I get. GA needs all the enthousiasam it can find. I was
recently going through all the old KR phot albums i could find and can't help
but wonder where a lot of those folks and some very gerorgeous
Joe, nice write up on repairs and rework on your KR.

auto fuel out of your fuel system.
The deposits in your fuel system and perhaps along with some stickiness on
the throttle were residue from the Ethanol in the auto
